A Statistical Approach to Prime Gaps and Andrica's Conjecture
Abstract
We examine the prime gaps using a statistical approach. It is first shown that the Andrica's conjecture is true for half or more cases. Using the arguments of averages, it is further shown that Andrica's conjecture is true. We further obtain a precise bound for the Andrica's expression.
